Third year architecture students from Dundee University have put the finishing touches to a Dundee church more than a century after it was built.
Logie and St John’s (Cross) Parish Church on Shaftesbury Avenue was built more than 100 years ago but the steeple on the building was never completed.
The church’s minister, the Rev David Gray, is a former architect and decided to offer architecture students from Dundee University the chance to imagine how the steeple could be completed.
Although their designs will not be built, year leader Ralph Tilston said the project allowed students to work together and let their imaginations run wild.
He said: “Part of the competition is the idea that design is a collaborative process.
“Students tend to sit on their own and produce designs but the reality is they will often be working in teams.”
Mr Tilston added: “The other thing is that competition like this gives them the opportunity to try out new ideas.
“They have academic work they must do but this gives them the chance to do something a bit more wacky.”
The competition was sponsored by the Dundee Institute of Architects and the group’s Joe Narsapur and Mr Gray picked two joint winners.
The first winning team comprised of Dino Cambanos, Georgios Chatzikomnou, Paola Denton and Adam Lancaster-Bartle while Georgia Burghardt-Scriven, Katarina Partikova, Erika Varha and Bowen Wang made up the second winning team.
The designs will now be on display at the church between 2 and 4pm every day until next Monday.
Logie and St John’s (Cross) Parish Church was built between 1911 and 1914 but the steeple was never completed.
In the 1970s a new hall was built at the rear of the building.
Its congregation originally met in the City Churches until it was destroyed in a fire in 1841.
They worshipped at the Gaelic Chapel on Tay Street until the new church was completed.
